Users who would wish to start immediately using FTPS can do so by connecting to webin2.ebi.ac.uk instead of webin.ebi.ac.uk. Please note that webin2.ebi.ac.uk only supports Webin-N (your submission account name) as the username when authenticating.
On 1st of September 2020:
webin.ebi.ac.uk will no longer support FTP
webin.ebi.ac.uk will support FTPS
webin2.ebi.ac.uk will behave exactly as webin.ebi.ac.uk
When updating the page you can also avoid the current confusing mix of webin.ebi.ac.uk vs webin2.ebi.ac.uk?
Currently https://ena-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/submit/fileprep/upload.html still has FTP instructions.
